Abstrak
Kajian eksplanatori ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan pengetahuan dan amalan
pengajaran pensyarah mengenai kemahiran abad ke-21. Secara khusus, kajian ini
perlu untuk menentukan sama ada terdapat perbezaan antara pengetahuan dan aplikasi
amalan pengajaran pensyarah terhadap Kemahiran Abad ke-21 dan apa sebenarnya
yang diajar di KV Sungai Petani 1, Kedah Darul Aman. Walaupun terdapat banyak
pandangan yang berbeza mengenai Kemahiran Abad ke-21, kemahiran dalam kajian
ini ditakrifkan sebagai pemikiran kritis dan pemikiran kreatif dan kemahiran
kolaborasi. KV Sungai Petani 1, Kedah Darul Aman ini hanya telah melaksanakan
sebahagian Kemahiran Abad ke-21. Kajian ini menunjukkan bahawa pensyarah
mempunyai pengetahuan dan amalan pengajaran yang tinggi dalam kepentingan atau
pemahaman dalam Kemahiran Abad ke-21.

Manakala strategi pengajaran berada

dalam tahap yang sederhana. Adalah dicadangkan supaya proses perubahan haruslah
melibatkan komuniti kolej vokasional secara keseluruhan dan saling bekerjasama. Jika
tidak, pelaksanaan Kemahiran Abad ke-21 akan terus kekal sebagai paradoks.
